Where do they come up with these numbers? I just read today 92 million are unemployed. “A record 92,269,000 Americans 16 and older did not participate in the labor force” So how do they come up with 6%? 92 million is almost 1/3rd of the TOTAL population. So what are they doing, discounting teens the elderly and the disabled from that 92 million? So what they are saying is only 5.5 million are left? Baloney.

Politicians don’t count anyone after they have been off work for a year, they become a nothing not counted in the statistics.

Both parties have done this IMO as to not be held accountable.

I think the unemployment rate is more like 18% in the country and probably near 38% for blacks. I also think most of the black employment comes from government and not the real world. Take away the government connected jobs and probably only 20% of blacks MAY be employed in the real world these days IMO. Yet again, what do I know I guess.
